Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event?
Although is not really a family event, during the day there are no age restrictions, however under 16's must be accompanied by and adult. Children under 12yrs will not be able to attend any talks or presentations as any noise can be distracting for speakers and audience. Workshops are for 18yrs+.

A printed ticket is preferable and much easier, but if you forget it don't panic -you can always show us on your mobile device! No fancy phone? Any issues can be sorted out on arrival, contact us on 07840094667.

Is it ok if the name on my ticket or registration doesn't match the person who attends?
Yes that's fine. It's your ticket, it's up to you what you do with it once it's paid for!

Do a Travelodge like @titchagain or an Air B'n'B. It is an excellent hotel (although the last time I stayed there, it was still a Ramada Jarvis Group asset). The watermill in the middle makes it feel oddly-alive, as a building.

I may well still go to the event, if I can carve an escape from work....it'd be good to get some relaxation for a change.

Justified & Ancient

just found this announcement on facebook.
Unfortunately, due to ongoing health reasons this year's festival/ParaCon will be cancelled. It is not a decision taken lightly but after working out whether I could pull out all the stops and still make it happen, I decided to be sensible.

I will contact those who have bought tickets, booked stalls and agreed to give talks and workshops individually over the next few days and full refunds will be given. Please bare with me.

This means I can put all my energy into planning 2018's ParaCon, making it bigger and better! It also gives time to organise events over the year to boost next year's budget.

I feel this is preferable to giving you all a substandard event this year. I really appreciate everybody's support.

Don't completely empty that weekend in your diary though!
I hope to still go ahead with an overnight investigation on Saturday 7th October with proceeds to go to next year's ParaCon Alba. I wait with baited breath for confirmation from the location and will post details here straight away.

By way of an apology, a discount for the investigation will be offered along with the refund to those who have bought tickets for the ParaCon.

Thank you for your patience. Lynne.

i had planned on 2 days at the conference and 2 days sightseeing in perth, now i hope perth has 4 days worth of sightseeing.
